... Winter Storm Warning now in effect until midnight EST
Wednesday night...
... Winter Weather Advisory is cancelled...

The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has cancelled the
Winter Weather Advisory. The Winter Storm Warning is now in
effect until midnight EST Wednesday night.

Low pressure forming over eastern South Carolina and southeastern
North Carolina will become the main low pressure system tonight
as it starts to intensify rapidly. By Wednesday morning... this
nor/Easter is forecast to be just east of our area... and will
bring heavy snow to a good part of our area Wednesday day into
Wednesday evening.

A wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain is expected
overnight over southern Delaware and extreme southeastern New
Jersey. As warmer air moves in at both the surface and aloft,
precipitation should change to rain toward morning. But... as
colder air wraps around the storm even these areas are expected to
change back to snow.

One to three inches of snow and sleet could accumulate overnight
along with possibly around a tenth of an inch of ice. Total snow
accumulations should average 5 to 10 inches. The snow may be
heavy at times on Wednesday. There is also a potential for strong winds
especially near the coast... and this will cause considerable
blowing and drifting of snow... even more than what occurred with
the weekend snow storm. Blizzard conditions may develop Wednesday
afternoon and evening as winds increase.

A Winter Storm Warning means significant amounts of snow...
sleet... and ice are expected or occurring. Strong winds are also
possible. This will make travel very hazardous or impossible.

... Wind Advisory remains in effect from 10 am Wednesday to
midnight EST Wednesday night...

A Wind Advisory remains in effect from 10 am Wednesday to
midnight EST Wednesday night.

As a Nor'easter intensifies off the New Jersey and Delaware
coasts winds will increase to 20 to 30 mph with gusts to around
45 mph mainly during Wednesday afternoon and evening. If the
strong winds coincide with the heavy snow... blizzard conditions
are possible and it might become necessary to issue a Blizzard
Warning for all or part of this area. Expect power outages and
possibly localized property damage from the combination of the
snow and strong winds.

.Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that wind gusts of around 45 mph are
expected. Winds this strong can make driving difficult...
especially for high profile vehicles. The winds will only
exacerbate the difficult driving conditions expected during the
day on Wednesday. Use extra caution and drive only if its
absolutely necessary.
